Claim on My Heart
Unveiling Love's Currency: A Claim on My Heart
Lyrics
I'd take you to a restaurant
I am unable to afford taking you to a restaurant.
But I don't have any money
Financial constraints prevent me from going to a restaurant.
I'd take you for a drive
I lack the means to take you on a drive.
But I don't have a car
Not having a car prevents me from taking you for a drive.
I'd take you to Paris
I don't possess a jet to take you to Paris.
But I don't have a jet
Lack of resources prevents me from extravagant gestures.
So I hope you'll settle
I hope you will accept and be content with...
For a claim on my heart
...having a special place in my heart.
I'd take you to the moon
Lack of a rocket prevents me from taking you to the moon.
But I don't have a rocket
I lack knowledge on how to reach or create heaven.
I'd take you to heaven
My commitment extends as far as my imagination allows.
But I wouldn't know where to start
Expressing the limits of my capabilities to fulfill desires.
I'd take you as far
My commitment is constrained by the bounds of imagination.
As my imagination would let it
But I hope you'll settle
I hope you will accept and be content with...
For a claim on my heart
...having a special place in my heart.
If you'll just bear with me for a moment
If you bear with me briefly, I believe...
I'm sure that we can find
We can rediscover everything we once believed in.
All that we once held is true
The truths we held dear are still present.
It's in a crevice
These truths are deeply ingrained in my heart.
Embedded in my heart
These truths are as unchanging and enduring as a stone.
And it's solid as a stone
I'll search the world
I will explore the world to find...
For laughter you've never heard
...laughter that you've never experienced before.
I'll find the pieces
I will complete the missing parts...
That are missing to the part
...necessary for our relationship to be whole.
I'll tell you the secrets
I will share untold and hidden aspects...
Untold and hidden
...of myself with you.
But I hope you're happiest
I hope you find the greatest happiness...
With a claim on my heart
...in having a special place in my heart.
